“We are forever grateful to have found Tami in our search for a safe, loving, caring environment to watch our beloved dogs. Tami is an absolute joy with a warm and infectious personality that our dogs felt immediately comfortable with. She provided the utmost amount of care, love and attention to our two dogs who absolutely felt right at home from the moment they walked into in her loving home. For reference we have two 70-80ish pound dogs that can absolutely play like rowdy, rumble and tumble brothers at times and Tami handled them with understanding and experience. Our dogs loved her two sweet female dogs and they all played together well. Kind and informative updates were provided to us while we were away on vacation complete with photos and videos of our sweet boys showcasing their level of happiness! We couldn’t be more grateful for you! Thank you a million times over! We know Declan and Zeus can’t wait to see you again! And, we as pet parents are over the moon having the peace of mind that we finally found a safe, loving pet lover to watch our dogs. Zeus & Declan say thank you and miss you already! With our forever thanks, Stephanie & Daniel! ❤️”

“I think Sammie will hope we go on vacation more often! He was so well taken care of- I felt he was treated like part of the family. Plus, he had the bonus of a playmate to spend his days with. It certainly made our time away more enjoyable, since we didn't worry about him. Thank you so much for the great attention and care. We will absolutely request you again!”


“Angela was so very kind, considerate, and respectful of our time. Meet and greet as well as drop off/pick up were a breeze. Absolutely felt 1000% comfortable leaving my baby with her and it looked like our dogs had such a great time together. Thank you again for letting Luna play with Bieber!”

She sent pictures and videos. She followed our care instructions to the letter. It’s easy to see Evelyn loves dogs and our dog seemed very fond of Evelyn. I would highly recommend Evelyn for dog sitting.”
